Arab League urges Slovenia to reconsider withdrawal of recognition of the State of Palestine
Nabil Elaraby, Secretary-General of the Arab League, sent two official letters to the Slovenian Foreign Minister and the European Union's High Representative for Foreign Affairs regarding statements about withdrawing recognition of the State of Palestine and relocating the embassy to Jerusalem. He affirmed that the withdrawal of recognition is illegal since Palestine is recognized by more than three-quarters of the international community, and that transferring the embassy constitutes a violation of UN Security Council Resolution 478. It also conflicts with the positions of the European Union and United Nations resolutions, which regard Jerusalem as the capital of the two future states.
